Terms and Conditions

 

 

This is a fun and laid back community, so a few basic ground rules are required to protect everyone and to make this experience enjoyable for all.  So here's the "small print"!

We take all reasonable steps to ensure that this website is available 24 hours every day, 365 days per year.  However, websites do sometimes encounter downtime due to server and other technical issues.  Therefore, we will not be liable if this website is unavailable at any time.  This website may be temporarily unavailable due to issues such as system failure, maintenance or repair or for reasons beyond our control.  Where possible we will try to give our visitors advance warning of maintenance issues but it may not always be possible to do so.  In the event of any unexpected loss of service, please visit our Facebook and Twitter accounts for status messages.

Any links to third party websites located on this website are provided for your convenience only.  We have not necessarily reviewed each third party website (especially if posted by registered members) and have no responsibility for such third party websites or their content.  We do not necessarily endorse third party websites or make representations about them or any material contained in them.  If you choose to access a third party website linked to from this website, it is at your own risk.

We take every precaution to guard against infiltration by spammers.  However, it is possible some may pass through the registration process and proceed to make multiple posts containing external links.  There is a high likelihood that such links may be to sites containing malware which could potentially infect your computer.  If you notice any unusual or suspicious posts, please do not click on the links under any circumstances but instead immediately report the posts to the administrator for further action.  Neither we nor any other party (whether or not involved in producing, maintaining or delivering this website), shall be liable or responsible for any kind of loss or damage that may result to you or a third party as a result of your or their use of our website.  This exclusion shall include servicing or repair costs and, without limitation, any other direct, indirect or consequential loss.

On registratration, you agree, through your use of this website, that you will not post any material which is false, defamatory, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy or impugning their integrity, or otherwise in violation of any applicable UK law.  Spam, flooding, advertisements, chain letters, pyramid schemes, and solicitations are also forbidden on this website.

Note that it is impossible for the staff or the owner of this website to confirm the validity of all posts.  Thus, despite our best efforts, we cannot warrant the accuracy or completeness of any information presented.  The posted messages express the views of the author, and not necessarily the views of this website, its staff, or this website's owner. Anyone who feels that a posted message is objectionable is encouraged to notify an administrator or moderator of this website immediately.  The staff and the owner of this website reserve the right to remove objectionable content, within a reasonable time frame, if they determine that removal is necessary.  This is a manual process, however, so please realise that they may not be able to remove or edit particular messages immediately.  This policy applies to member profile information as well.

You remain solely responsible for the content of your posted messages.  Furthermore, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless the owner of this website, its staff, and its subsidiaries.  The owner of this website also reserves the right to reveal your identity (or any other related information collected on this service) in the event of a legal action arising from any situation caused by your use of this website.

You have the ability, as you register, to choose your username.  We advise that you keep the name appropriate.  With this user account you are about to register, you agree to never give your password out to another person except the administrator, for your protection and for validity reasons.  You also agree to NEVER use another person's account for any reason.   We also HIGHLY recommend you use a complex and unique password for your account, to prevent account theft.

After you register and login to this website, you will be able to fill out a detailed profile.  It is your responsibility to present clean and accurate information.   Any information the website owner or staff determines to be inaccurate or inappropriate in nature will be removed, with or without prior notice.  Appropriate sanctions may be applicable.

In resolving any situation or disagreement, the decision of the administrator of the website is final and correspondence will not be entered into.

Also note that the software places a cookie, a text file containing bits of information (such as your username and password), in your browser's cache. This is ONLY used to keep you logged in/out.  The software does not collect or send any other form of information to your computer.

The administrators of this website reserve the right to amend these Terms and Conditions as required.
